Ryder stopped in the depths of the forest, staring at the illegal plants. 

"These plants... It would have been so much better if it was something else that I could have used against Aluren," Ryder thought as he smiled wryly. 

"Whatever, I need to practice. Now that I'm a Higher Level, the powers that I got from the Fragments have upgraded too."

"Each fragment gave me three powers, but I only used the first as the other two were sealed. But now, more of them are unlocked because of my extremely high level. I need to make my body adjusted to the new strength and also master the skills of the fragments. They'll work miracles if I use them correctly," he added as he opened his Skill bar.

He had many skills in this world, but the major skills were, Ruler of Nature, the Ruler of Time, the Ruler of Wind, and the Ruler of Water. 

He wanted to know more about the skills since the new abilities were only unsealed after he killed the last King and gained one more boost. 

First, he tapped on Ruler of Time on his status screen to know more about his new skill.

As he tapped on it, a screen opened before him with all the details. 

[Ruler of Time: Time is absolute, and no one can change it except the one who truly controls it. The one that truly masters the time can never be defeated unless the destiny wills it]

[Skill 1: Time Reversal

Skill 2: Time Manipulation

Skill 3: Locked (Level not enough)]

He already knew about time reversal as it allowed him to go back in time depending on his level, but the real interesting past was the time manipulation. 

He tapped on the time manipulation to see what it actually was. 

Another screen popped up before him as soon as he tapped on the skill.

[Time Manipulation: Time is the most difficult to control, but whoever can manipulate it as their desire becomes the King who can really be defeated. Time Manipulation allows the user to reverse the time of any object or dead to the time before, without having to go back in time.]

[Reminder: On an inanimate object, the limit of time reversal is equal to your level in minutes, any number of times.]

[Reminder: On dead beings, this ability can only be used once to reverse their time by thirty minutes]

"Interesting skill. Not offensive but a pretty good skill indeed. So I can reverse the time of objects. So if a bomb is about to blow up, I can reverse its time. And the door and the other things that I broke, I can bring them to as they were before. If I had this before, no one would have known that I broke the door of my room," Ryder muttered as he read through the skill. 

"But the most important part seems to be the second one," he continued. "If I'm at a war, and someone close to me dies, I can reverse their time and bring them back to life as long as they aren't dead for longer than thirty minutes."

"Even though I can only use this skill on one person only once, this is still pretty useful. Moreover, there's no limitation on how many people I can use this on," he said as he closed the screen and got to the previous screen. 

"I wonder what the Third skill will be when it's unlocked. I have such a high level, and still, that's not unlocked. How long is it going to take?" He thought to himself. 

He opened the second skill, Ruler of Nature, soon after. 

It was the skill that he had received not long after getting the first fragment. 

[Ruler of Nature.]

[Skills: Passive Skill: Double Growth]

[Active Skill: Blessed by Nature]

[Double Growth: Every growth that the person achieves is doubled. The Stat Points received after every level up will be doubled. The experience gained will be doubled.]

(Limitation: Doesn't work on body proportions like height and weight) ]

[Blessed by Nature: 

Skill 1: Infinite Healing

Skill 2: Nature Control

Skill 3: Locked (Level not enough)]

"Nature control, huh. Interesting."

He knew what infinite healing did. Even though it was called Infinite, it came with a limitation. But the Nature Control interested him more.

[Nature Control: The nature is a vast force of this universe that helps maintain the balance of life. It can create, and it can destroy. The Skill allows the user to control any plantation to his advantage and even making Tree Warriors to fight for them]

[Reminder: The Tree Warriors can only be made depending on their strength. If the Tree Warrior is made to have strength equal to ten percent of the User, five of them can be made. Tree Warrior is made to have strength equal to fifty percent of the User, one of them can be made.]

[Limitations: The Tree Warriors can't have strength more than fifty percent of the user]

[Limitation: The Duration of their existence is limited, after which they'll disappear. They can only be summoned again after 24 hours]

"Tree Warriors? The heck! It's such an OP Skill. With my high level, if I summon five of them even at ten percent strength, they'll be able to destroy cities! Amazing skill."

"And when I summon at twenty or thirty percent, they'll have more strength than the Kings had. It's like having my personal kings!"

"I need to test these skills before fighting. It's good that I wasn't hasty," he said to himself. 

As he thought of the various uses he could put this skill to, he opened the next skill in question. 

[Ruler of Wind: Wind is everywhere. It is what allows people to breathe, yet it can make them die. It can be soothing, and it can be terrifying. Not only humans but all the species depend on it. The one that controls Wind has the potential to control the surroundings and to reach higher than the heaven]

[Active Skill: Blessed by Wind]

[Blessed by Wind]

[Skill 1: Flying]

[Skill 2: Extreme Flying]

[Skill 3: Locked (Level not enough)]

"Flying and extreme flying? Is that just an upgraded flying skill?" Ryder asked to himself before he tapped the skill. 

[Extreme Flying: Allows the user to fly outside Earth and even to places where no air exists]

[Limitation: This skill can only be used once every two days.]

[Limitation: User won't die of lack of oxygen, but he might die from hunger if he doesn't eat]

[Limitation: Once used, the user must go to a different world within two days of the skill being used; otherwise, the skill will be restricted to two years]

"I doubt what I feel about this skill. It's good as I can travel in space, but the limitations are massive. It's clear it's an intergalactic travel skill, so I can't use it for random uses. That's what the last limitation wants to make sure, I think," Ryder said as he closed the screen. 

"So I can only use this for leaving Earth and going to a different planet. If I use it for anything else, I'll lose this skill for two years."

"Moreover, I also need to carry my food with me since I doubt I can get anything to eat in space otherwise," he said before he sighed. This skill was good, but it came with a lot of baggage. 

Moreover, he couldn't see any use for it. It's not like he wanted to use it to actually go to the moon or something, even though it sounded fun.

As Ryder finished with most of the skills, he moved to the next skill, which was the Ruler of Water. 

He tapped on the screen, making another window pop up before him. 

[Ruler of Water: Ruler of Water with the strength to Rule the Seas. Ruler of Water makes you control one of the universal elements of Water, forming the sea, giving home of billions of lives]

[Active Skill 1: Blessed by Water]

[Skill 2: King of Water]

[Skill 3: Locked (Level not enough)]

<Passive Skill: Underwater Breathing>

He already knew the first skill, which allowed him to make weapons from water and call out the rain which had the ability to temporarily boost his powers while decreasing the strength of the enemies that were under this rain, but the second skill was what he was more excited about as it sounded cool— the King of Water. 

He tapped on the screen to know what it was actually about, only to be stunned as he saw the description of the skill.

[King of Water: Allows the user to control any sea creature when inside water]

"This skill... Didn't it make me the God of Water Poseidon?"

"I remember using the first skill to make a trident to feel like Poseidon, but I can also control the sea creatures now? This skill, even though not useful outside water, is so cool. I like it a lot," Ryder exclaimed, smiling.
